Dion Jordan just because a large part of his attractiveness as a prospect is his ability to move in space. A large consensus of people agree that he needs to add about 20 pounds. If he adds 20lbs of fat he's going to lose his ability to move, so he needs to 20lbs of muscle which can reasonably be done in 2-3 years. But the reason he is under weight right now is because he can't lift due to his shoulder, he is having surgery this week.

His shoulder will need to heal and rehab before he can lift the way he needs to, which just adds to the already 2-3 year processes to get the finished product. I have to wonder how many teams will be willing to bet on Jordan to overcome a shoulder injury to gain 20 lbs of muscle with a 1st round pick. I can see him panning out but I can def see a window for him to become a bust

Brilliant letting one of Scott Pioli's henchmen have his own team to ruin. One of the premier GM jobs in the NFL and it gets handed to a stupid **** who makes three facepalm moves for every good one. Awesome. Just like handing a new Mercedes to a 16 year old girl who's already been in three wrecks.

I'd put DaMontre Moore up there. He's a guy with no real flaws, but no real exceptional qualities. If he gets drafted high, it'll be be cause of his college stat-sheet but I think he'll do about as well in the NFL as Everette Brown did.

I don't like pass rushers who are no better than "slightly above average" at anything.

I had questions about Dion Jordan too. He may have played below 230# for the Ducks, but unlike Aaron Maybin Jordan has solid muscular legs, not the toothpicks Maybin ran around on. Jordan just needs to get his upper body bigger.
Oregon didn't really let Jordan rush the passer all that much, but I think if he's turned loose off the edge in the NFL he's going to be a perennial double digit sack guy.

Hurts for me to admit that on Everette Brown, but very nice comparison possibility.

I see no way Jordan busts, he has a real shot to be one of the stars of the draft. He isn't just fast, he has terrific movement skills that you cannot teach. He'll add weight after his shoulder surgery but he'll be efective right out of the gate as a 3-4 OLB.

I'd say Moore and any of the QB's and likely Te'o as well. I have my concerns about the rawness of Ansah but he does have a high ceiling for a team that is patient.

I don't have a ton of outright busts, but I could see a lot of these players just becoming solid guys instead of stars. Not one elite player in the draft.

The QBs are nothing more than above average across the board. Right now I don't see a probable franchise QB in this draft.

I could easily see Ansah bust completely, but he has some real potential and fans want to be first to love the next best thing. I could see him taking time to learn the nuances of the game and to just learn football.
